Even though Otis was taking a nap nearing the deadline before that he was shopping Bogans and Mo. He was putting them out there as many minutes as he could so everyone could get a good look at them and hope there value would increase. Now it would make sense to send Mo to the bench to reduce his value since we need to re sign him. With that said i would predict now that the deadline is gone Mo plays less to allow JJ to move in. Bogans is a gone after this year anyways so we will use him as we need him. Exactly! We should definitely bench our rather surprisingly productive shooting guard so that JJ can play!

Sit Dwight and Shard too... lets go something like Nelson/Dooling Evans(limited)/JJ(Bench but bulk of the minutes) Hedo/Bogans Cook/Auggie Gortat/Foyle Really see what we have...

Sure, he might even get more. 5-6 rebounds on a good night? Doubt it. Defensive intensity? Not likely. I'll trade the 6-7 more points he might average for what Evans brings to the table as this time. And since when am I a JJ hater? I even said I'd like to see what the kid could do with some playing time. And why would I hate White Duke players? Please, let's be reasonable here.

magicdepth 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2008 Jareth im not saying Mo isnt a surprise or isnt still going to get a bulk of the minutes but i see JJ moving in over Bogans. Mo getting like 25 minutes and JJ seeing 10 and Bogans 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikesj 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2008 I believe it wasn't Evans minute's being discussed, it was ;as you put it "surprisingly productive SG" Bogans. I bet you JJ could match Bogans production. Bogans rankings: 41st among SG's in FG% 27th among SG's in 3ptFG% 38th among SG's in scoring per 48 min. as for his defense 30th among SG's in steals. Not to good for a guy getting over 28 minutes a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thus, I replied with sending our "surprisingly productive shooting guard to the bench". Soooooooo, what does Bogans have to do with what I said? Absolutely nothing!

Mikesj 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2008 Evans isn't exactly blowing up the stats either, JJ almosts scores as much as him in the five minutes a game that he gets. What does productive mean to you? Maybe you meant successful, what is the Magics record when Evans starts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whats your point? Whats the Bobcats record with Jason Richardson, Gerald Wallace, and Emeka Okafor starting? Whats the Nets record with Jason Kidd (when he was on the team), Vince Carter, and Richard Jefferson starting? Evans is a solid role player who is contributing in more ways then just "stats". He hustles and plays to win the game night in and night out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikesj 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2008 Yeah JJ doesn't hustle or try to win night in night out. The difference btw 8pts per game and 3.5pts per game is 4.5 , I consider that close. My point is the team is not any better with him in the line-up, I had him at 12-9. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
